' Down East
with
Billy Arthur
I have often wondered why so
many sign painters put the apos
trophe where i! does not belong
.sometimes for ilw- plural when the
singular is intended and vice versa,
and sometimes when none at all is
needed.
Writing in The State. John
Saw believes he lound the
\ Jn.
J? man noticed a sign almost
.npleted on a shop-window
I.ADIE'S A NO GENT'S RFSTt'
RANT.' and the painter still at
work on it.
The man must have had the
came curiosity 1 possess for he
-topped and said to the artist.
"Pardon my inquisitiveness, but
why do you put the apostrophe he
fore the S."
'Put the what before the which?"
asked the painter, courteously.
"That little curly-tailed mark
after that E and that T. Some call
it an apostrophe."
"Posserphe. is it'.' Well young
feller, thank you! I seen and ]
make that dingus a hundred times,
and 1 never new it had a name!
Posserphe! That's a good one: I'll
have to spring it on the gang!
Some painters always paints it al
ter the S. bill I alv/ay.- puts it be
fore the S. because 1 think it looks
more artistic there. Except for
that, it don't make no difference
where you put it."
It only proves that if you wait
long enough you will find an ex
planation of all mysteries
We got to talking about back
seal drivers the other evening, and
the Missus allowed that her rela
tives were about tlie most efficient,
if you term back seat drivers such,
she had ever experienced.
She recalled one summer that
she and a party of them took off
from the flat lands around Klza
beth City for a tour of the mount
ains.
#As they .swung around winding
roads and looked almost straight
down sometimes, the Missus gut
words of caution and warning such
as "slow down, drive carefully,
watch where your'e going, don't
get too close to the shoulder."
Finally she said she could stand
it no longer and put her foot down.
"Now see here." she told them
off. "I'm driving; I think just as
much of my life as you folks, and
I'm not going to hurt you; so keep
quiet."
That worked, she declares. Ex
cept—
They didn't say a word about her
driving, but each time they passed
the big rocks and mountain sides
and signs painted by religious en
thusiasts. they would read them
aloud;
"Prepare to meet Thy God .
Jesus Saves."
CWO Frank Rentfroxv told a good
one before he departed Friday for
San Diego.
Coming back from overseas by
ainil13 of his party of 17 were
superstitious. They departed Japan
on June 13, and were somewhat
reluctant to do so. But you know
what happened, en route home they
crossed the international dateline
and had 48 hours of June 13 in
stead of 24.
Only thing that kept them from
wanting the plane stopped was ihat
they were headed home.

American Force To Remain
In Austria, Acheson Says
VIENNA, Austria td'i— I' S Scc-«
retarv of State Dean Aehesou said
today American troops will remain (
in occupied Austria until its inde
pendence is assured.
He blamed Russia lor the failure J
of the Big Four to write a treaty I
of independence To a news con
ference of Austrian and Allied
newsmen, lie said: "Make no mis
take about it. Of the four powers
in Austria, three want to go home j
Aeheson is making a two-day i
state visit to this crossroads coun
try of East and West He came;
here from Berlin.
His visits to the two Communist-!
ringed cities are aimed at bolster- !
ing the courage of their people by j
reaffirming Western support for
their objectives. In the case of
Austria it is the completion of a :
treaty of independence, long block
ed by Soviet delaying tactics.
.Just before the conference Ache-!
son called on Dr. Theodor Koerner.
aged Socialist president of Austria,
with a message from President j
Truman pledging that the I S
would do everything within its pow
er to restore "final freedom" to
Austria.
Austria is still under four-power |
occupation. The L\ S . Britain and
France have a total of 25.000 troops
and the Russians an estimated 4U.
000 in this strategic nation.
Aeheson called on President
Koerner in the latter's residence'
on the old Winter Palace of the
Hapsburg emperors. A crowd ol I
several hundred Austrians cheered I
Aeheson as he drove up to the
palace accompanied by U S. Il: ;hj
Commissioner Walter J Donnelly.
With Koerner was Austrian For-1
eign Minister Karl Gruber. During
the 15-minule call Aeheson stepped
onto the balcony overlooking the
grounds of the palace.

Parker Winner
Of Supreme
Court Seat
RALEIGH Superior Court
Judge R If 11 nt Parker appeared
loday to have won I he Democratic
nomination for associate justici' ol
the State Supreme Court.
With 248 of the state's 2.017 pre
cincts unreported, unofficial re
turns irom Saturday's second pri
mary showed Parker- leading .Judge
William H. Bobbin of Charlotte b\
3.087 votes. Parker, who is from
Roanoke Rapids, received 9G.471J to
Bobbin's 93.389 out of .189.958 tab
ulated.
Meanwhile. three candidates
scored easy victories in congres
sional runoff races. These were:
Rep. F. Ertel Carlyle in the Sev
enth District. Hugh (i. Alexander
of Kannapolis in the Ninth, and
George A Shul'ord in the Twelfth.
While the final vote in the I'ark
er-Bobbitt race was still in doubt,
an analysis of the unreported pre
cincts indicated Parker could ex
pect more than half of the votes
in those precincts. Many of the
missing precincts were in Parker's
st rongholds.
Country boards of election will
meet tomorrow to canvass and cer
tify the returns The State Board
will meet July 9.
.Judge Bobbitt wired congratula
tions yesterday to Parker, but said
his telegram did not mean he had
conceded. He wanted to wait until
more returns were in.
In the Seventh District congres
sional race. Carlyle won reuomina
tion for a third term. The 55-vear
old former district solicitor from
Lumberton swept to an easy win
over Mayor .1. () Tally Jr.. ot Fay
etteville. Tally trailed Carlyle by
only a small margin in the first
prima ry
Benton Believes President
Might Agree To Candidacy
On the Democratic political,
scene, a familiar string was twang
ed. Somebody said lie thought I
President Truman would run again)
under certain conditions.
This time it was Sen. William
Benton of Connecticut. In a week
end speech for Democrats at Osh
kosh. Wis., he said he feels Truman
would become a candidate to save
the party from an unacceptable
nominee. He added: " l do not
think he will run because I am
positive we Democrats will nomi
nate the right candidate."
Some of the men who would like
to till that bill were busy trying to
show they could.
At New York. Mutual Security
Administrator Averell Harriman
told a CBS television audience Un
united States need fear Russia no
longer in u couple of years if it
pursues its present anti-Commu
nist program.
On an NBC television show from
Washington. Georgia Sen. rtl
Russell pegged his bid to his rec
ord: 32 years in public life. 20 of
them as a senator, the rest as a
Georgia governor and legislator
Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennes
see on a Washington CBS-TV pro
gram, said he favors a constitution
al ban Dii poll taxes, a voluntar>
fair employment plank in the Dem
ocratic platform-but would sup
port whatever civil rights policies
the .July 21 convention adopts.
Sen. Robert Kerr of Oklahoma
told a news conference at Salt Lake
City nobody would get the required
majority — 61(5 of 1,230 delegate
votes on the first ballot at the
convention. Kerr predicted he
would win on a later ballot.
The Associated Press scoresheet
for Democrats shows Kefauver a
head with 215 1-2 delegates* Rus
sell is next with 135 1-2. followed
by Harrinmn s 99 1-2 Kerr has 3K

Korean Battles
Bogged Down By
Drenching Rain
SiCOUL, Korea Three days
oi' drenching rain have turned the
Korean battlefronL into a soggy
swamp where croaking frogs have
taken over irom the booming artil
lery.
Allied planes were grounded a
gain today Kven all weather I
light bombers remained at their
bases.
l,t. Gen. Glenn O. Bareus. Filth
Aii- Force commander, reported
Allied planes which bombed the
giant Suiho power plant a week
ago drew heavy i'ire from Com
munist anti-aircraft guns across
the Yalu River in Manchuria but
made no attempt to silence them.
Bareus said last week's series oi
raids wiped out 13 power plan's
all there were in North Korea.
I don't think there is a chance
in the world that the Suiho plant
will be operational again m this
war no matter how long the wai
lasts." he said.
Only a few light patrols wore
out Monday morning.

Becker reported:
On hills that have been the tar
gets of Chinese barrages and night

men kept busy bailing out "hoo

up muddy trenches.
Korean service troops struggled
up the steep hills bearing cans ol
